i didn't say it was safe just easy to make

almost as easy as tnt

you can make that in your engine

with super unleaded and toluene (major ingredient in octane booster) when overmixed

Of course the propellant in that St Ivel "squirty cream" is Nitrous Oxide.

I wonder if you squirted it in the carb.............

Someone ought to try that.

Go on you know you want to.

Cheers

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I always wondered why they don't just make fizzy petrol - and we could do away with carbs / fuel injection altogether. Have a pressurised tank in your car, like a big pop bottle.

In fact, why don't they make the roads out of rubber and then your tyres could be concrete or asphalt, giving you a flywheel type effect and loads of mileage on them.
The roads would be nice and easy to resurface too, just pour new rubber in any holes and melt it flat.

My tablets have run out...

pop would be the operative word. nitrous oxide is an oxidizing agent, mix it with petrol and I think it would become quite unstable (explosive)

my bro got some nitrous in a small pressure bottle, think it was something like refills for a chefs cream squiter. Quite a laugh apparently...
